Your recent play discoveries Optional · saved on this device When Save play summaries is on, finishing a session saves its game, level, completed challenges, and uses of hints. No child names or answers are saved. The latest 30 sessions per game stay in this browser.

This records practice, not mastery, educational progress, or a clinical assessment. Music Studio is unscored free play and does not save these summaries. Children can have different levels of support between sessions.
A few helpful things for parents Build a habit that fits. Start with a short session and a comfortable level. Explore garden or music creation between more structured games. Longer sessions and harder levels are optional. No points are lost for hints or breaks.
Make sound work for you. Sound is off until you enable it. Learning adventures have gentle action and completion sounds. Melody Maker adds tune challenges; Music Studio offers seven instruments to play freely with optional recording and replay. Use Test sound, set volume above zero, and check the browser tab and device are not muted. Pause stops queued sound. Read aloud uses an available local English voice; written instructions remain available.
Accessible controls. Tap, click, or use Tab and Enter/Space. Motion is optional and respects your device’s reduced-motion setting. Choose simpler boards, higher contrast, or a different level. No game requires dragging, a microphone, or fast responses.
Free to play. All games and levels are available to everyone, with no account or subscription. Puzzles, music, and feedback run on your device. Personalized parent tools are also free.
Privacy. No ads, chat, cameras, microphones, or child accounts. Answers and custom words remain in their game tab. Optional play summaries stay in this browser; downloads are under your control. Games does not require an account or send play records to a server. Read the Games guide →
Games need JavaScript. You can still browse the free resource directory and user manual.
Your information, your choice. × Saved on this device Your saved records stay in the browser profile you are using on this device. This version has no online document storage or automatic backup to a website account.
Storage space: browsers typically allow about 5 MB for this site’s local saves, shared across all its tools and children—not 5 MB per document. Browser settings can reduce or block saving. Photos and extracted document text use more space, so there is no fixed number of plans or documents you can save.
Keep downloaded backups of important records. Clearing browser data can remove saved work, and private browsing usually removes it when the private session ends. If a save fails, keep the work open and download a copy.
About browser storage limits ↗
This website has no accounts, payment processing, advertising trackers, or analytics. The lesson planner, parent tools, and games run in your browser without paid AI services. Documents and entered family records are not sent to an AI provider. Optional feedback can be copied or downloaded for you to share yourself; it is not sent or stored by this site. The hosting provider may keep standard access logs, such as IP addresses and page requests.
The sample lesson is a static PDF with fictional learner information. All tools are free to create, edit, save, print, and download. Samples do not use or change your family records. No account, payment details, or subscription is needed.
Saved resources use local browser storage. Plan drafts are stored only when you explicitly save them or enable autosave for that plan. Saved lesson plans include activity edits, generated IEP goal excerpts, recognized skill and access summaries, supports, and checkmarks, but not the uploaded document. Saved output never becomes a source for a newly uploaded IEP. They are not encrypted and may be accessible to other people using this browser profile. Downloads and printed copies are your responsibility.
IEP files are read locally in the browser. The imported document is not automatically stored or sent to a server. Selecting “Use in Parent tools” copies lesson activities, goal excerpts, and supports into the toolkit for this tab. Saving the toolkit explicitly stores that copy, your notes, calendar, comparisons, and any work-sample images or attached documents in unencrypted browser storage. Toolkit backups contain that same information. Replacing the IEP, closing the upload window, or choosing Clear cancels document reading and releases the builder’s references to the document, source goals, generated schedule, and temporary activity history; browser memory is not a secure-erasure guarantee. Downloaded lesson files may include source goal text.
For uploaded IEPs, used-activity fingerprints stay only in the current builder session. Daily and weekly plans from that IEP share repeat protection until you replace or clear the IEP, close the builder, or refresh the page. Every upload starts a fresh session, even if you select the same file again. Manual planning has a separate history of SHA-256 activity fingerprints saved on this device; it does not affect uploaded IEPs. The history does not contain child names, IEP text, or lesson text. Reset manual history for another learner. If storage is blocked, manual history lasts only in the current tab. Copies you explicitly save to Parent tools or download are separate and never used to generate lessons from a new IEP.
Annual progress reports use only the selected learning records and date range. Reports can include child and parent names, completed activities, goal excerpts, observations, parent notes, and work samples if selected. Saved reports are unencrypted local copies; exports are not sent anywhere automatically. Delete saved reports in the report tool or with the site’s saved-data control. The School Year Planner has separate workspaces for each child and year. It keeps its sources and records in this tab until you explicitly save, enable automatic saving, or download a backup. Saved years and backups include extracted IEP, educational, medical, and therapy text, notes, and completed-day records; these are unencrypted. Opening another year never feeds its documents into Quick Lesson. Replacing the current IEP updates unfinished goal practice, while completed records remain. Use New child / year for another learner. Delete a saved year in its privacy controls, or delete all saved learning information below.
The family support organizer saves separate child workspaces only when you choose Save. Workspaces and backups can contain names, contact details, access needs, provider notes, school plan details, document locations, and follow-up dates. Uploaded documents are not stored by this organizer. Printing or downloading a tool includes that tool’s records; a backup includes the entire selected child workspace. Information is not sent to providers or schools automatically. Saved copies are unencrypted and can be removed with the site’s saved-data control.
External resource links open other websites with their own privacy policies. This website does not send your planning form contents to those sites.
Games keep current answers and custom practice words in their game tab. If you turn on Save play summaries, finishing saves the game, date, level, challenge counts, attempts, hint counts, and play mode in this browser, without child names or answers. The latest 30 sessions per game are kept. Delete them in Games or with the saved-data control below. Game settings such as level and theme appear in the game’s address; custom words do not. Games requires no account and does not send play records or reading text to a server. Natural voice software may be cached by this browser; these public files contain no child records or generated readings and use browser cache space separate from saved learning records.
